    What some of us always suspected but Ebron confirmed it. Team was going no where after that, not just that year but 21 also. Not that we had a better option at QB.

    I did read that in 2022 we were interested in Stafford but Rams wanted a 2nd rd pick and Steelers were only offering a 3rd. I would have gave up a 2nd easily. Would have gotten a QB and been spared the Pickens drama.

    Didn't Stafford have a shoulder that season? There was some risk there but hindsight says he was worth a 2.

    I don't believe for the Stafford situation....Maybe it was in 2023 after a bad season for the rams and Stafford(because of many injuries including Stafford) but no way it was in 2022,few month after the rams won the super bowl...And the steelers had high hope on Pickett at that time too....I just don't believe that

    But yeah,Ben was too limited at the end...His arm was not the same and he could not move....Bad combinaison.He was good for the first 2 months in the 2020 season but it was harder and harder after that
